I am running my car on ebay again. Ebay item # is:150406188604 to see pictures. I have a buy it now of $5,750 and do have the right to end the auction early. I live in Cumming, Georgia about 40 miles northeast of Atlanta.
I bought this car because it is an all original matching numbers, 327 automatic, original paint, all GM sheetmetal project. As you can see in the pictures, it is going to require a complete and total restoration. The original color is Tripoli Turquoise with a black vinyl top, and a black interior. I also have a clear Georgia title in my name. It is a base model Camaro, not a RS, SS, or a Z-28. I was going to do a resto-mod style restoration in the original color, vinyl top, and 327 motor (it needs rebuilding). The only changes I was going to make were a quick ratio steering box, better shocks and control arms, 18-inch wheels, Wilwood style brakes, and a 700 R4 transmission.
The appeal is that it is an entire car for a very reasonable price. 1st generation Camaros are very expensive, and it is hard to find a complete car to start on as a project. No searching for window regulators, trim, bolts, bumpers, brackets, hard to find pieces, etc. If you have ever done a restoration, you know that you are better off to start with as many usable pieces as you can. The subframe is in excellent condition. Sandblast it and paint or powdercoat it. The inner fenders are also very nice.
It will need rear frame rails, inner and outer quarter panels, trunk pan, a rear tail panel, and a deck lid. The rockers, floor pans, doors, cowl, firewall, and hood are all in great shape. The front fenders may or may not need a lower patch on them. The car was tapped in the rearend at some point. If you wanted to do a pro-touring style restoration, this car would be ideal for the DSE mini-tubs because of the work that is needed.
I reserve the right to end this auction early as the car is for sale locally. Give me a call with any questions.
